The power of adventure to foster a healthy brain and a fulfilling life: A conversation with Anne Armstrong of My Gnome on the Roam

Coffee with a Neuroscientist

What if one little gnome and one tiny suitcase, as well as an app and other educational tools, could change your family? In this episode, you’re going to find out how this is possible and the way that one amazing entrepreneur is improving the brain health of people of all ages, by infusing a sense of adventure into their lives!

Anne Armstrong is the Founder of My Gnome on the Roam ® educational toys which inspire a love of reading, writing and adventure for kids, families, students and educators across the globe.

After 20 years of teaching gifted and talented students, Anne took on the role of mom entrepreneur to share her formula of small pockets of time + a simple idea for an adventure = deeper family connections in as little as 30 minutes a week.

A published best-selling children’s author of the book “My Gnome on the Roam ®,” Anne strives to live by a phrase coined by her brilliant students who refer to her as the Field Trip Queen: ‘Make Your Life a Book Worth Reading.’

She holds a Master’s and Ed. Specialist degree in gifted education and has been featured on NPR, Huffington Post, Treehugger.com, and the New York Times.

I’m so excited to introduce you to Anne, who is someone that is tapping into her own strength and talents while making the world a much better place. I encourage you to visit her site at https://mygnomeontheroam.com/, and let us both know which adventures you and your family embark on next!

I’m hosting a workshop called Beyond Vision Boards, which goes even deeper into this topic.
